Same here, I have 5 little ones and going to school so it is hard for me to work full time. Living pay check to pay check and this sounded really good. I have been fallen for a scam before and was embarrassing so I wanted to look into this and found this site. So sad people would do this especially to those who really does need the help.

I have been receiving calls all day about this $7000 grant that I can get without having to pay back. I was falling for it and I have been caught in a middle of a scam before was so embarrassing. So I looked up about this $7000 grant and found this site. So many bad things. I mentioned it to him and of course he has a different story and apologizing for how people gets caught in scams. They didn't ask for no money from me but gave me a verification number to take to like a western union place and have them verify the money for me. Then he told me to hold on he was receiving an "important" call about someone calling him back letting them know they have verified everything. Thought it was rude to just put me on hold like that and if they are a for real business helping people there would have been someone else to take those calls right? Is this real or fake though? The numbers this came from was 202-000-1111 this number called to let me know I was chosen for the $7000 then this number they gave me to call a "Randy Miller" 202-738-1482 he never answered my call then he called back with a number 202-243-0000

I have received a number of calls one that calls and says that the government has selected me for a 5000$ grant. The number was anonymous. I told him that I was not willing to give my banking info, so he said I can get it through western union. He gave me a # 202-697-9980 to call to revive my transaction #. I call guy sounded the same asked me to go to a cab store to do a 250$ application then I can receive my $ today @ western union. I said couldn't do it didn't have that kind of money. Sounded totally bogus. But I almost did fall for it. Especially since I am trying to get loans for school and got denied because I don't make enough. So they almost had me but I thought I should look it up first. Knew it had to be a scam.

The same exact message was repeated to me today. Except the number came up as a 203 number was not the full 10 digit number. I called a similiar 202 number but it was 202-621-0945. A woman with a thick Spanish accent told me was going to receive $9,000. I immediately called the number after hanging up. No answer, no voice mail. Call back a few minutes later a man named Gabriel Gomez (so says he was the GM) Very similar story. I will report to the authorities too. He wanted to be on the phone when I go to Western Union. I'm pretty sketched out about it. I was very stern and very careful of giving out any information.  Please be careful out there

I got a similar call. They said that I have been approved a Federal Government Grant of $9000. I was given a code and a number to dial, 202-241-1610. The caller called me from 1-800-818-9987.

The caller had thick accent and occasionally he would say"??now listen carefully?.."?.. ha ha ha?. joke apart?..

Why someone can not trace them so easily with these US numbers so that the Police can reach them faster than Western Union?

Sorry and disappointed in myself for letting them take me for 1212 dollars in three different installment every payments one step closer to the grant money after that he had the nerve to ask for one final payments of 1400 dollars for security code. I thank I know with. I've finally been beat. But will not stop until I redeem myself and justice will be done that's a fact. So stay on point and more info will come.

Just got a call with a CA number telling me I was awarded $7500 but I had to call 202-241-1610 with a confirmation number 132372, but before I got the money I had to pay PA state tax of $190 and get this - I can pay the state tax at a CVS.  Didn't know they collected state taxes.  When I go to CVS I am to call Kevin Jones and he will guide me through the process.  At that time I am to give him my bank information.  When I asked him to send me the forms he told me he had no forms to mail now but I will receive a 22 page documentation after I pay the $190.  He too had a very thick accent - had to ask him several times to repeat himself.  Filed a claim with FTC.  Now we wait and see.

I just got a call from 206-923-9681 saying i was to receive a free grant for $9,000.00 if i would go to the local Western Union and pay $310.00 first.
I then asked why they needed the money and she said it was the processing fee but when I got the $9,000.00 they would give me my $310 back as well.
I then asked if I had to pay this fee if I had chosen the other options of payment and she said yes I still would have to go the the Western Union and pay the fee first.
:) I told her I did not have $310 and she then told me to borrow the money from my friends... yeah not going to happen.
She finally hung up after saying that she would hold my "grant" for me for 15 days and she would be avalible whenever I called back.

Just had the same call from 202-559-7639 from a women with a heavy indian or foreign accent telling I had been selected for a $9,000 federal grant and I needed to call Max Newman at 607-214-3000 with my confirmation number.  Max Newman answers the phone at that number and his English is a little better.  He explains in order to get this fabulous $9K grant I need to put up a one time $250 deposit in order to verify it my identity. OMG how STUPID.  Anyone dumb enough to fall for this scam almost deserves it however these buzzards need to be keel hauled and then face a firing squad.

This guy calls me and tells me that I can have  $7500 grant. All I have to do is call a phone number. Yes it is a scam. I have found a connection to Level 3 Communications and Verizon. I am on a do not call list and Verizon has released my number to a client of theirs. If there is an Attorney that would like to get involved in a Class Action suit I am very willing to get involved in this. They say that they are a government agency.

Mine came from 202-210-0054 on 10/31.  He had an accent, but I couldn't tell if it was a Latino or Indian accent.  He told me he was from some Federal department in DC.  He told me I was one of the few to be selected to receive a $9000 grant for being a good citizen.  He told me he was going to transfer me to New York and the money would be transferred right away.  He said I could have the money transferred to credit card, debit card, bank account, etc.  At this point, I interrupted him to ask what the name of the grant was again (he told me the name but I didn't remember it and wanted to google it while we were on the phone).  I heard him rattling through papers and he said, "it is uh...uh...uh..." And then he hung up on me.  I was disappointed because I was looking forward to questioning him further.

I just got a call 15 min ago telling me i was going to be given a $9000 grant. From 202.407.9056. It was sorta fun playing along for about 2 minutes. I could not understand his name. I asked if there was a number i could call to verify this was a scam. All he did was repeat his spiel. When he asked for my age, i just told him, no thanks and hung up. From the government my @*s!

I got a call from a guy with a heavy accent from an unknown #. Told me I got $1000 grant and to call 202-621-0436. So I did just to see if this was legit. And to have them stop calling me to be honest. So I called and frank Anderson was the guy I talked to. Accent as well. And he said it was 7000$ and then he was stating all this stuff and I asked if it was real and legit bye said it was because he didn't want to make trouble for me or whatever his reason was. Then he said I need to go to Walmart at a money grant place. To call him before I Get in the store and he would stay on line with me until I get my money in my hands. And that it would b cash. Also I would need to bring i.d and $290 for some tax thing but I would receive it back with the $7000. He told me to call him when I am going and no rush. But I don't think im gonna call back. But I am wondering what if its actually real and I'm walking away from $7000 ....?

I feel bad, I really think that 7000 dollars would help me a lot but in the other hand its f****ng scam!!!!
I'm already in western union to send 310 dollars to Brad Johnson, but there's a long line in western union so I decided while waiting I will get my phone and searched it up and then it lead me to these website which is im glad reading all the messages from other people who almost got scammed by that all means I don't have to send my money which I work very hard on every cents .pls... don't fall for it those people are sick!!!!
